Advisory & CFO Support for Clydebank: the basics
Advisory work is where accountancy adds the most value: structuring the business tax-efficiently, planning cash, pricing properly and preparing for a sale or investment. We work with Clydebank owners on the decisions that move the numbers, not just the reporting of them.
Scottish taxpayers pay Income Tax at rates and bands set by the Scottish Parliament, which differ from the rest of the UK, while National Insurance, VAT and Corporation Tax are UK-wide. Property purchases are subject to Land and Buildings Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty Land Tax.
Why Clydebank businesses use IGI for advisory & cfo support
A named accountant, not a call centre
You deal with the same person throughout the year. They learn how your Clydebank business works and answer the phone when you have a question.
Fixed monthly fees agreed in advance
No hourly billing and no surprise invoices. Your plan covers the work agreed, and anything extra is quoted before we start.
Unlimited support included
Call, email or book a video call as often as you need. Questions about expenses, dividends or a letter from HMRC are part of the service, not an extra.
